Let's talk about drinks

I almost exclusively drink water. It's the only thing that I've had that tastes like water. So it tastes like itself?

When I partake of alcohol, I just roll with whatever is already being drank. I always love some ciders though since I've spent over half my life so far in the UK countryside.

For carbonated stuff I only ever pick pepsi because a friend used to be fanatic about it and I guess it just rubbed off on me. Pepsi max all the way. fight me.

There's a smoothie truck in town that does some tropical storm smoothie. It's so thick that you can fit a penny down the straw they give you... I love it!

I personally haven't made a drinky mcdrinky drink, but i heard that Peter Drinklage is the only human to have ever pull it off.

Water tastes different in different places. I drink a ton of water, and I live in NYC which apparently is renowned for its quality. That said, I am always thrown when I drink water in Virginia or Boston and it tastes ... different. It's water, shouldn't have too much variance. Supposedly it's difficult to make bagels outside of NYC because of the water, that's pretty interesting.

I'm deep into some crazy cocktails at the moment, my latest creation was an Ancient Mariner -- a mix of grapefruit, lime, dark and light rum and a homemade all-spice dram. Dark and spicy while simultaneously tart and citrus-y, perfect for those 60-70 degree nights right now in my parts.

I like to drink. I drink lots of things, lots of ways. Usually those ways involve alcohol, sometimes they do not. I no longer drink soft drink (pop, soda, fizzy drink depending on where you live). I have however recently tried the new no sugar coke - diet coke and coke zero both tasted like someone took a piss in the bottle, but the new one is passable. I am convinced stevia will be found to cause your penis to fall off or something in the near future though, so I'm not going to drink more of it.

I drink a lot of water, because it's good for you. Seriously, swap out water for soft drink and it's amazing how much other unhealthy shit you can consume instead. 2L a day without missing a beat. Better than any detox diet or powder shit. Quite often that water will contain coffee. Water definitely tastes different depending on the location. Different regions of Australia have sayings like 'if it's brown, drink it down, if it's black, send it back'. Which is a play on the old water saving ditty 'if it's yellow let it mellow, if it's brown flush it down'. Thankfully I don't live in a rural area, because both of those are nasty.

Those sorts of blended dairy things people call milkshakes, smoothies, lassis, etc etc are also good. I've found those to be very much a pay more get more kinda deal.

I'm Aussie, so beer of course. Which is fizzy, and a drink, but is not a fizzy drink. I also drink ciders, but they have to be manly ciders with apple and pears and shit because if you get busted drinking strawberry lolly water people will think you're gay. When nobody is looking I will enjoy a rekorderlig.

I drink wine, which as a teenager always thought tasted like arse - turns out my parents just have shit taste in wine, and bought the $5-$10 vinegar piss. A good shiraz and some cheese is better than sex - but bonus points, is great for convincing people to have sex with you. Not that into whites (not racist though) but I find a good riesling every now and again.

I drink cocktails, but not so much now that I'm off the soft drinks - time was bourbon and coke was the classy cocktail, jager bombs or red bull & vodka for when shit needs to get messy. Now it's more martinis, normal or espresso, and liits (use actual iced tea in place of the coke).

But my passion is whiskey. I head up to Scotland on a yearly basis to visit distilleries and hunt down the best I can find. Right now I'm sitting here with a dram of HP 18, which is my go to for good drinking.

Beer is definitely my go-to alcoholic beverage. I usually prefer ales over lagers. My favorite beer changes a lot, but right now it's Elysian Space Dust IPA. What about everyone else?

I've been starting to drink whiskey lately too. Does anyone have any uncommon whiskey drinks they like?

My wife and I have been on a margarita kick the past little bit. We got a cocktail shaker and started doing them properly instead of just mixing tequila and the bottled margarita mix from the grocery store.

Two parts tequila, one part lime juice, half part triple sec, half part simple syrup. Shake it up with ice, strain into a glass over fresh ice.

We want to try other cocktails now that we have the shaker, but the margaritas have been so tasty that we just keep drinking those instead.

I try (and fail) to drink more water. I've found that the "Clear American" flavored, carbonated waters from Wal-Mart are a decent stepping stone between soda and water (though it's still sweetened with aspertame)

I drink a couple cups of coffee (a large travel mug) every weekday, and supplement my caffeine with Pepsi Max

On the rare occasions I drink alcohol, it's usually in the form of whiskey or rum and coke. Sometimes I'll do Midori and Sprite, or do a daquiri impression in the summer if I have leftover sorbet

I drink water. It tends to taste of the minerals that are in it. Different tastes for different places; the one I grew up with always tastes the best to me!

I drink alcoholic beverages, though not in the same volume that I used to. I love beer, and I enjoy whisky. My beer tastes are eclectic - I'll try anything.

I drink carbonated beverages. Coke Zero is pretty much the only one. Sugar free + caffeine = what's not to love?

I drink juice occasionally. I like orange juice and apple juice. I don't often go for smoothies.

The current Drinky McDrinky Drink that's been popular (with my wife at least) is domincan rum, club soda, and lime. It's... well, it's certainly something. If you like club soda, you'll probably enjoy it.

I drink water mostly. We can drink the tap water here, and that tastes like "water". If we boil it first, it tastes a bit sweeter/more neutral. I realize, I really can't describe water.

I also drink tea and lattes.

And in the summer, love adding soda to pretty much any juice, my current favourite being grapefruit.

I'm a coffee addict. I drink 2-3 cups every morning and if I don't have at least some I get a headache. I usually have a cup in the afternoon to push through to the end of work too. Or at least some tea which is also great.

Besides coffee, water is what I drink most often. Usually 24-36 ounces in the evening.

If I'm drinking alcohol, I'll do gin, whiskey, or rum typically. I love a good martini or gin and tonic. I'll do beer sometimes too but I'm not big on carbonated drinks in general. Plus beer makes me sleepy.

In the summers I'll drink OJ/iced tea/lemonade (separately) as well.

Bonus weird drink - Orange Juice and Tonic Water, made 50/50. It's a little fizzy but much less than soda, and the sweetness/acidity of the OJ compliments the bitterness of the tonic water really well. Perfect on a hot day! I suggest doing it with pulp-free OJ otherwise all the pulp will collect at the top because of the fizziness. It's kind of gross.

1. Water should be wet, and nothing else. 2+ liters per day.

2. Coffee should be black, and nothing else. 2+ cups a day.

3. Alcohol should be brown, or else mixed with fruity mixers. What, I can drink what I want.

4. Carbonated beverages rot your teeth. That said, I won't turn down a glass of mineral water.

5. Smoothies should be avoided, and nothing else.

6. I don't understand the question and I won't respond to it.

7. Yes, yes it does.

I hate water. I also hate being hydrated because I hate peeing, so I guess it works out. I drink however much water I need to survive, maybe 300mL a day, plus another 500 or so in our hot tub at night time.

I like coffee, and I like it with heavy cream in ;) I also like all black teas and I make my own kombucha now because that was getting to be an expensive habit.

I like Coke Zero, and I'm sad about Coke Zero Sugar, but I'm adjusting. If you go to mexico you can find a vanilla extract that is vanilla in a base of tequila instead of vodka which is the standard here, and I like about one capful of tequila-based-vanilla extract poured into a can of coke zero. That's my absolute favourite fizzy drink, but I also like carbonated water a lot (surprising because I hate water?)

I like beer for boozing, but nothing very heavy handed on the hops because I think I might be slightly allergic to them. Cascade hops in particular seem the worst to me! I also love Caesars and Margaritas, or if I'm feeling really special, anything with a mango or lychee base is great!

I just heard on the radio, people are being urged to get blood tests done if they drank in the town where I grew up within the last decade (where my parents still live) due to chemical contamination over the past decade. Never drinking water again. Back to diet soda all day, every day.

I drink a lot of green tea. It's a great way to avoid drinking sugary drinks or energy drinks.

My causal drink of choice is a toss up between beer and gin and tonic.

I drink water, tea, and alcohol. Mostly apple ciders, tequila, whisky, and Amarula. No beer. If you ever visit South Africa, try some Amarula. It's Africa's gift to the world.

I like infusing liquor. Especially vodka and white tequila. The brands available at Costco are cheap and excellent. Just buy a few bottles, put some stuff in them, and let them sit until they taste good. If anyone is interested, I will post my favorite recipes.

I used to be all about booze. liquor, beer, wine, especially wine but I got to a place in my life where I stopped being comfortable with how it would make me feel and I wanted to quit smoking so quitting booze went hand in hand with that. it's been about a year and a half but I don't really miss either all that much.

that being said, I definitely swapped my vices for caffeine. coldbrew is my jam and I drink probably way too much of it.

I primarily drink coffee and tea - only decaf coffee, since I drink a lot of the stuff. Coffee with cream, breakfast of champions! My favorite flavored coffees (usually a pecan or hazelnut flavor) come from New England Coffee and Lola Savannah.

Teas - black, green and herbal, the stronger the better. Can be decaf or regular since I don't drink as much of it as I do coffee. Plain water, rarely. Carbonated, flavored waters (unsweetened), occasionally and beer, once in a blue moon (only for medicinal purposes).
